Having studied the examples, I've noticed that windstar's code repeats three lines (almost exactly, except for the htmlspecialchars, which is apparently not the problem) that Niels (mistakenly) includes and Crimson Fuzor has deleted in order to make his/her code work.

Niels had this code:

Code: Select all

$this_userdata = get_userdata($user_id);
      if( !$this_userdata )
      {
        message_die(GENERAL_MESSAGE, $lang['No_user_id_specified']);
      }
    }
  else
    {
      $this_userdata = get_userdata( $HTTP_POST_VARS['username'] ); //delete this line
      if( !$this_userdata )                                         // delete this line
      {                                                             // delete this line
if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['new_user'])
{  //we need to create this user !, before continue


Crimson Fuzor had this code:

Code: Select all

   
    $this_userdata = get_userdata($user_id);
      if( !$this_userdata )
      {

        message_die(GENERAL_MESSAGE, $lang['No_user_id_specified'] );
      }
    }
    else
    {
                                                                    // notice those three lines
                                                                   // are deleted & it works
if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['new_user'])
{  //we need to create this user !, before continue


and windstar had this code:

Code: Select all

$this_userdata = get_userdata(htmlspecialchars($HTTP_POST_VARS['username']));   // delete this line!
      if( !$this_userdata )                                                     // delete this line!
      {                                                                         // delete this line too!

if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['new_user'])
{  //we need to create this user !, before continue


It was the started and never finished if-loop that gave windstar the parse error.

I've made the changes, but when I click on "Management" on the left Admin navigation bar, I get the message: "User does not exist" in the right pane. Could anyone give me any help? Can we get the MOD files updated to how it should be for those unexperienced with PHP (like myself) who can't tweak the code?

Thanks.

ok, i finally gave up an uninstalled this mod.

There is another one working for me (not so comfortable like this one) here: http://www.awsw.de/Forum/viewtopic.php?t=984

I had a little trouble with this, and I really don't know why, but I know I now have the code section in admin_users.php working correctly. At first, I couldn't get it to show the checkbox -- the BEGIN and END html-style comments in the template file -- user_select_body.tpl -- were causing that; when they were removed I could see the checkbox. Then, I could get the new user working but managed to break it looking up users that did exist.

I've finally gotten it to what is intended. (I have trouble with trying to insert code in the middle, especially when nested levels are involved (all those braces!).) Here's what that full section looks like for me, with it working (including a little extra code to make it easier to identify in the file):

Code: Select all

if( isset( $HTTP_GET_VARS[POST_USERS_URL]) || isset( $HTTP_POST_VARS[POST_USERS_URL]) )
{
    $user_id = ( isset( $HTTP_POST_VARS[POST_USERS_URL]) ) ? intval( $HTTP_POST_VARS[POST_USERS_URL]) : intval( $HTTP_GET_VARS[POST_USERS_URL]);
    $this_userdata = get_userdata($user_id);
    if( !$this_userdata )
    {
        message_die(GENERAL_MESSAGE, $lang['No_user_id_specified'] );
    }
}
else
{
    $this_userdata = get_userdata($HTTP_POST_VARS['username'], true);
    if( !$this_userdata )
    {
        if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['new_user'])
        { //we need to create this user !, before continue
            $this_userdata = get_userdata(ANONYMOUS);
            $sql = "SELECT MAX(user_id) AS total FROM " . USERS_TABLE;

            /* snipped a bunch of code to shorten the post */

            // get the data of the newly created user !
            $this_userdata = get_userdata($user_id);
        }
        else
        {
            message_die(GENERAL_MESSAGE, $lang['No_user_id_specified']);
        }
    }
}
